July 2nd- The Make Up comes to Ottobar! Tickets on sale Friday at 10am at theottobar.com
.
.
.
THE MAKE UP is the Washington, DC group that re-defined underground music in the middle and late 1990s with their peculiar and incendiary blend of gospel, garage and yeh-yeh music. Known for their dynamic and interactive live presence at hundreds of shows across 5 continents, the group also recorded 7 LPs, 14 singles and EPs and and collaborated on films, videos, pamphlets, and happenings. They toured extensively as a headliner and with groups such as Royal Trux, Sonic Youth, Fugazi, Dub Narcotic Sound System, Lung Leg, Harry Pussy, and many others.
The group has been called “dazzling … best dressed … martial … terrifying.” Their shows were known to feature communication, sermonizing, crowd participation, and dancing virtually unknown in the staid world of indie and garage rock. Their style was perfect, with matching Mao style jackets, with new versions designed for each tour.
The group was widely copied as well and precipitated and inspired a wave of “garage” imitators in the 21st century who often had commercial success but lacked the spark, character, nuance of the Make Up. Occasionally, when the moon is bright and the wolfsbane blooms, the group has come out of hiding for rare and exciting personal appearances since disbanding in 2001. They are making one of their rare returns now for a short time only.

😥 CLOSED SATURDAY, APRIL 20 😥
So get this: a shocking number of millennials have never seen this movie, so they don’t know the three rules. This explains why, during the annual cleaning of the bathrooms, an overzealous staff member was hosing them out without looking first and now we have a gremlin infestation. And as anyone can tell you, gremlins are DISASTEROUS for dive bars. So, sadly, we will be closed for Saturday, April 20th while we install this expensive UV lighting system we ordered. But never fear! We will open again on Sunday for Black Celebration!
TL;DR No, you don’t pay me enough to summarize this. In fact, you don’t pay me at all, so you are going to have to just go back to the top and read the entire post.
---
UPDATE: It turns out we are inexpiicably and legitimately open up to the public again at midnight so if you`re feeling brave enough you can swing by to close us out!
